I am having problem with work sheet naming from a cell I know this has
been posted before by other people but I can't get it to work i copy
and paste what they say and i just can't get it to work

On sheet 1 cell c8 I want sheet 2 tab name Tom or a number
On sheet 1 cell c9 I want sheet 3 tab name Ray or a number

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "C8:C9" '<== change to suit

On Error GoTo ws_exit
Application.EnableEvents = False

If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
If .Address = "$C$8" Then
Worksheets("Sheet2").Name = .Value
Else
Worksheets("Sheet3").Name = .Value
End If
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.
